But why Blizzard hide the whole tournament? And I found that 2014RB Washington's VOD parts can't be searched too.Only two long video(10 hours and 5 hours) of live streaming can be searched. | ||

To elaborate, we can judge Life and his character morally for what he has done, which is quite despicable and a betrayal of gaming etiquette. But at the same time we should separate the player from the man at least in terms of his games. Life's gameplay, when he was on top of it, was remarkable and for a time he truly was the best player. His games should still be view able as, for better or worse, they are part of SC2 history. Even if you despise the man, you can admire the and what he's done you can admire the player. | ||

I’m largely OK with him being Voldemort-esque in terms of contemporary broadcasts, erasing the actual past does a disservice to both fans of the game, but also to his rivals back in the day. Guys like TaeJa and MMA had some of their most iconic series against Life, it detracts from them as well to just delete anything Life related. | ||

But removing the vods of games is just annoying. Even the final sOs won? one of the most hype series in all of sc2. Erasing part of sc2 history is wrong. It would be a crime if they got the Life vs DreaM matches removed. Or the Life vs Mvp/Mari/Naniwa/PartinG finals. edit: so it seems the 2014 matches are private where the 2015 ones are simply unlisted (can be viewed if you have the link) | ||

I remember re-watching his series vs TaeJa and MMA maybe a year ago or so Yeah I did as well, relatively recently. To pull these from searchability just, sucks. One thing SC2 has over BW is how easy it is to find good quality VODs in English of basically all you could want to. It removes history from the game, it also harms other players as well. MMA’s post peak runs, Taeja may have not won a GSL but his series’ with Life still are testament to him being amongst the very best. Take away that context and you take away the legacy of other players too. Despite having a great career afterwards anyway, Bisu’s defining moment, part of his nickname etc was him dismantling Savior, imagine if all those VODs were pulled? I think it’s perfectly appropriate to not mention Life in current broadcasts, but to pull the history seems wrong. Us veterans may still want to admire his peak play, or new folks might be directed to it. If I watch the Tour de France now, commentators don’t refer to Lance, or his 7 being the record, but I can still go back and watch his duels with Jan Ulrich et al if I want. I feel that’s a decent balance between punishing a player who really damaged the overall scene, vs completely erasing the past. | ||
